Review of Evaluations of the Tribe by Raphyel M. Jordan

Evaluations of the
Tribe: A Coming of Age Space Opera (Prossia Book 0) by Raphyel M. Jordan

Overall star rating
--- 5

About the book:

"You Learn. You
Work. You Fight."

These are the mandates
young, alien best friends, Aly and Catty, must follow in order to be of any
worth to their tribe on Planet Gooliun. Most people in their village have an
entire childhood to perfect such traits. However, time is of the essence when a
dangerous rite of passage meant to test these qualities is boosted years ahead
of schedule.

As the Evaluations
near, a strong bond is challenged and a bitter rivalry is born when playful
harassment leads to violent bullying. This doesn’t take away from a real danger
approaching the tribe, however. One has yet to be seen, and another is right underneath
their noses.

The review --

The book grabs the
reader and draws them into the different world of putting the tribe first. It
never let you go til the last page
really. There is wonderful moral
that show the reader that one might think someone else has it easier but that
is not always the case. The
author has a beautiful way of describing the village and the school. It makes
it seems like it is really out there somewhere.
